Connect to Shopify

Connect to Shopify

Starting January 1, 2026, Shopify has implemented new guidelines for custom app installations. We recommend using the new method below to generate API credentials. The current method is still available for now, but it will be phased out. Follow the steps below to extract your API credentials to connect your Shopify store to the integration.

Step 1: Open the Shopify Dev Dashboard

  1. Log in to your Shopify admin account.
  2. Go to Apps from the left-hand navigation panel.
  3. Click on ‘App Settings’ from the search bar’s dropdown options. 
  4. Click Develop apps (or Build apps, depending on your Shopify version).
  5. Click on ‘Build apps in Dev Dashboard,” and you’ll be taken to the Shopify Dev dashboard. 
  6. Click on ‘Create App’ 

Step 2: Create a custom app



  1. Click Create app.
  2. Enter an App name (for example, CedCommerce SHEIN Integration).
  3. Click Create to confirm.

Step 3: Configure the app version



App name
  1. Review the App name.
  2. You can keep the default name or update it for easy identification.
  3. This name does not affect functionality.
App URL
  1. Pase the App URL provided inside the CedCommerce app.
  2. Do not use placeholder or example URLs.
  3. Make sure Embed app in Shopify admin is unchecked.
Preferences URL (optional)
  1. Leave this field empty unless instructed otherwise.
Webhooks API version
  1. From the dropdown, select 2025-10.
Notes
Note: The webhooks API version may change as per Shopify’s version update. Follow the steps shown in the app during Shopify authentication for the latest version selection, as shown below: 
This ensures compatibility with Shopify’s latest webhook standards.

Access: Scopes

  1. Click Select scopes.
  2. Add the required scopes provided in the CedCommerce app:
    --> read_products
    --> read_inventory
    --> write_orders
    --> Read_fulfillments

    Note: The required scopes may change as per Shopify’s version update. Follow the steps shown in the app during Shopify authentication for the latest version selection.
  3. Confirm all scopes are selected.
Missing scopes can prevent product sync or order updates.

Legacy install flow

  1. Enable Use legacy install flow.
This is required during Shopify’s transition period.

Redirect URLs

  1. Paste the Redirect URL(s) provided inside the CedCommerce app.
  2. If multiple URLs are provided, separate them with commas.

POS and App proxy

  1. Leave POS and App proxy sections unchanged.
No configuration is required here.

Final step

  1. Click Release to activate this app version.
  2. Once released, proceed to Settings → Credentials to copy your Client ID and Client Secret. 

Warning
The older authentication method will be deprecated after January 1, 2026.
